The balcony provides some of the most expansive and magnificant vistas of the ocean to be had on all of Hatteras Island as we are on the top level well above the dunes. No impediment of the view or sound of the ocean whatsoever.

The kitchen is very well supplied with full size stainless steel appliances, ample cabinet and counter space and a wine cooler.

High speed wireless internet, cable TV MP3/IPOD docking station, as assortment of books, washer and dryer, and iron and ironing board are also supplied for your convenience. Limited Long distance service is included, however cell service is superb at the Islander and all of Hatteras Island.

The Islander Condominium complex is located in the heart of Avon and is in close proximity to many fine eateries and shopping facilities.

A pool is on the premises for those wind blown days and a fishing pier is right next door as well. A health and exercise club is just a short walk as are tennis courts and a putting green at Club Hatteras or the Koru Club, as are many fine eateries and stores. More information regarding things to do will be supplied upon request.

Our unit is a top floor unit which is great for the vistas, but the Islander condominium complex is not serviced by an elevator and therefore, is not suitable for people with physical limitations.

In summary, we feel that you will find our Seamist Escape very comfortable and convenient in every way. Should you like to know more, or if we can provide any assistance to make your vacation more pleasurable, please feel complimentary to contact us.

We thank you for your interest in Seamist Escape.

Strategies to get the optimal Hatteras vacation property experience:

When to book & When to go:

• Book your rental as early as possible. Rental schedules generally open 12 months in advance (or in September just after the Summer season ends). Many groups reserve their Summer rentals during Christmas and Thanksgiving get-togethers. Reserve before these holidays for best selection.
• Summer months are high season in the Hatteras area. Book your Hatteras vacation in the Fall or Spring to enjoy beautiful weather while saving money and avoiding crowds. Many vacationers use this strategy to reserve larger homes, or to book a beach front rental that would otherwise be unavailable during the high season. Speaking of the off-season, don't overlook Winter holidays for a Hatteras vacation! Who wouldn't love a holiday vacation on the coast? Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are great times to gather with family and friends at your favorite beach.
• Some property management companies offer promotional rates for veterans and active duty military. Remember to ask your host or property manager if special offers are available for your family before you book.
• Booking websites often offer customers an option to purchase trip insurance. Trip insurance, which commonly costs 1% - 5% of the reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of their vacation costs for days missed as a result of medical-related emergencies or weather, as well as evacuation costs or charges, such as an unanticipated hotel or additional gas expenses. Trip insurance can be a a bank account-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask the property owner for additional information.
• Often, property management companies supply Hatteras area travel guides which will include coupons, either offered directly by local businesses, or through a relationship with the management company and the business itself. You can also find Hatteras area magazine and coupon books at local shops and grocery stores.

Make a plan and choose the right Hatteras rental:

• Select your vacation dates and budget.
• Decide how many beds and the configuration your group needs. Seamist Escape \/ 2 Bedroom Ocean front Condominium has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
• Specific information about bedrooms and bed sizes & counts is generally available on booking pages. If they are not listed, call the property owner before booking the vacation property. Note that most listings specify maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds. You'll need to establish which bed configuration is best for your vacation.
• If your group is vacationing with pets, you will need a pet-friendly vacation rental. Ask for information on breed, size, and type requirements. Note that some hosts require additional pet deposits and fees.
• If there's a specific Hatteras attraction you are crazy about, keep an eye out for rentals that are either near by, or those that cater to your requirements.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for the less-mobile. Confirm all necessary amenities are available before reserving a rental

Tips for your stay:

• We recommend storing the owner's contact information in your smartphone.
• Hosts are great sources of help! Feel free to ask any questions during your stay.
• Protect the owner (and your things!) by keeping the rental locked up when you are away, just like you would back home.
• Make a record of any damages to the rental during check in, and immediately send them to the host. We especially recommend e-mails and text messages, as they usually contain built-in time stamps that are very helpful if a dispute is filed.
• Don't forget to respect your neighbors. Frequently, surrounding homes are occupied by local residents. Respecting late-night quiet hours and parking policies reduces conflict and allows everyone to enjoy their day.
• Speaking of neighbors... Ask a local! Local residents can usually help you find exactly what you're looking for. Who better to ask where to rent beach equipment, have a great night on the town, or the best spots for crabbing?
• Re-check the vacation property to make sure that you've packed all of your belongings at check-out. Check bathrooms, dressers, and closets for hidden treasure. Clean out the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Record a video to document the condition of the property.
• Did you have a terrific vacation? Most rental management companies make it easy for customers to provide feedback. If your rental property and/or host was terrific, they would love to hear it. If anything was amiss and they failed to fix it in a reasonable manner, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
